Header Leak!

Hey, wondering if someone could help me out with a header leak.
I put aftermarket headers on about a month and 1/2 ago(Heddman headers) and recently can hear a leak on the driver's side header. I think it is right at the down pipe. not 100%, regardless how would i fix this,if say it didnt seal with the down pipe?Or other possibilities on what it could be?

Thanks

Common problem. Often the flanges are too thin, and the bolts to small and too spread apart to effectively seal. Sometimes using more than one reinforced gasket.
